On the Fifth day of our FFA National Convention Trip, the Students got up early for the Opening session @ Lucas Oil Stadium. We were blessed to listen to the National officers and our Keynote Speaker Mr. A'Ric Jackson with a wonderful message about Leadership. After our morning session we went back for our second day at the FFA Expo and student workshops. We ended the day with a nice dinner at the Cheesecake factory.

Central FFA had a Wonderful First day of their National Convention trip. We stopped in Joplin, MO for Breakfast @ the Big Biscuit, stopped at Buc-ee's for a rest stop and then made our way to the St. Louis Arch. We explored the Museum below the Arch and learned so much about how, when, and why it was built. All eight of us rode the Tram Cars to the top of the Arch @ 630' above the ground and back down. Finished the First day with a St. Louis style BBQ dinner @ Busch Stadium where the St. Louis Cardinals play. Tomorrow we will head to Louisville, KY and tour the Louisville Slugger Factory, after that we will head to our Airbnb in Indianapolis, IN.
